Subject: Annapolis/Balto/DC Area Dog Events Dec '02

Despite the frantic holiday season and cold weather, there's actually some fun dog happenings this month. All kinds of places are also offering pet photos with Santa, way too many for me to list. Check your local pet store, shelter, vet, pets-on-wheels etc. As usual, feel free to print and post this, pass it on to a friend or view it online at http://voy.com/52810/ . -Xavier & Gomez
